We don't do CC Centre rallies, but I can tell you something about committees.  Generally, it isn't some kind of power trip.  To run any event, there's an incredible amount of organisation to be done.  This invariably ends up being done solely by the committe members, so it's a question of the more the merrier.

Many hands make light work. It's sad, but true, members usually don't want to help with the organisational side of things, so it all falls on the shoulders of the committee.

I don't think Hitler comes into it.

How many were at that meeting?  What kind of events did you arrange?  What about publicity?  How did you manage to signpost the route and send people directions?  Who was responsible for security?

If you organise an event, you have to take responsibility for all this, and a lot more.

However, if the idea of 11 Hitlers bothers you, the simple solution is not to attend.  It's not compulsory.

Surfer01 - sounds like you knew it wasn't for you even before you posted this!

Personally, I don't think rallies are for us either, but each to their own - I know a number of people who get a lot of pleasure meeting up with friends this way.

Live and let live!

Due to the economic downturn and sites being priced out of our reach at present,

Why not go to 5 van sites instead? The CC rallies do not really appeal to me, but we have tried the holidays sites which we found very good value, and we were left to join in or not, up to us.  This year we are mainly going to 5 van sites as we feel these offer what we want, and at a price we are prepared to pay.
